Chuck Rosenthal, Fine Artist
Artist Chuck Rosenthal paints a wide range of interesting artisitc pieces in his own fashion. Whether his subject is a child on a beach, a still life or construction workers, the main characteristic of his style is the attention paid to the warm colors. You wish you were in that painting ” you can feel the sun on your back.
His landscapes and sea scenes could get you through a cold misty winter. They would make any room light up with warmth.
You can almost smell the flowers and taste the fruit of his still life paintings. Rosenthals technique presents sufficient detail to give the viewer the rough feel of the pottery and the cool smoothness of the glass without overdoing it.
Overworking a painting ” too many details, too many brush strokes, often marks the work of beginning artists. Rosenthals art has the look of a professional. There are no overworked paintings in his gallery.
Simple everyday things are the subjects of his paintings, things that give people comfort. The daffodils and irises, apples and grapes in his still life paintings are things people know in the modern world, but are painted in such a way as to take you back to a simpler life.
The people in his beach scenes are ordinary people you might find on a beach if you went tomorrow ” a little girl playing, a young man searching in his bag for a candy bar, a grandmother and granddaughter watching the surf. There is nothing aloof or esoteric here.
But the paintings convey more than the ordinary. Or perhaps, one should say, they elevate the ordinary to a higher plane, inviting the viewer to join in the artists admiration of life and light in the world around us.
